SAF PLASTI-X CHARLIE 15 cm - Pink Beast

Product detailed description

SAF PLASTI-X CHARLIE 15cm – Pink Beast is a hand-poured and carefully finished soft bait that we produce piece by piece here in-house. This version is built around a very attractive contrast between a transparent belly with a rusty-pink tone, a dark back enriched with interference blue, and a precisely placed UV accent in the upper half of the back, which adds another layer of visibility in the water without making the lure feel overboosted.

That is exactly where the strength of Pink Beast lies. It does not come across as just another loud bait with no logic behind it, but as a very interesting natural pattern with its own life. The transparent belly with its warm inner tone can suggest a smaller baitfish carrying roe or simply looking more “ripe”, while the darker back with a blue interference tone gives the lure depth, silhouette, and character. The fact that the UV stays only in the upper part of the back while the belly remains transparent and non-UV creates a very interesting contrast and gives the lure a livelier, more refined effect in the water.

The CHARLIE 15cm model within the SAF PLASTI-X concept represents a more robust working profile for anglers looking for more volume, a more stable action, and stronger use than with slimmer soft baits. The combination of a bigger body, a more pronounced action, and this kind of colour logic makes this version a very interesting working lure.

Pink Beast makes very good sense in saltwater fishing. CHARLIE works best wherever you want a more active lure with more drive and good readability both in the water column and on the drop. For cod, coalfish, pollock, and other saltwater predators, it offers a strong combination of a more robust profile, stable action, naturally attractive contrast, and a UV accent in the upper part of the lure that helps maintain visibility without unnecessary overload.

This version also makes very good sense in freshwater, especially for pike and bigger predators in general. The pike logic works very well here – a bigger mouthful, a stronger profile, a clear contrast, and a lure that can really call for attention. Pink Beast is exactly the kind of colour that stays natural enough not to feel cheap, while still being strong enough to genuinely provoke a pike.

Another important part of the CHARLIE concept is the overall finish of each lure. We rig these baits with quality 15 mm Sybai 3D eyes, which have a stronger resin layer and help give the whole lure a cleaner and more distinctive final look. The eyes are attached with gel super glue, which seats them precisely and avoids messy bonds or unattractive gaps underneath.

We put the same level of care into the final finishing of every bait. After trimming the lure from the plastisol, each cut point is hand-sealed so the final result looks clean, consistent, and professional. These small details make a visible difference on the finished bait.

SAF PLASTI-X is not built at a desk. These handmade soft baits are made from materials we know, use, and sell ourselves. In the case of CHARLIE, this also connects naturally to our workshop background and to the ARES molds, from which this direction follows both visually and logically.

It also makes perfect sense to combine it with our SAF jig heads, because the right pairing of a quality jig head and a properly built soft bait creates a functional setup. And if you want to fine-tune your lures even further, the whole SAF ecosystem follows naturally – soft bait making, scents, SABOFLEX Quick Fix glue, and surface tuning with SABOFLEX Quick Dip.

Pink Beast is a bold but very intelligently built working colour for saltwater and pike fishing, wherever you want to combine a more robust profile, stronger action, naturally attractive contrast, and a UV accent placed exactly where it makes sense. That is exactly what this SAF PLASTI-X CHARLIE 15cm is built on.
